As a quick aside: This might sound a bit weird, but you've got the spirit of an alchemist. On the surface, this post seems to go against your negative reaction to Kentucky Route Zero being too academic. However, you've managed to filter the study of classics through your experience of them, allowing others to find their own connections through yourself and others who have contributed, thus creating their own personal attachment. A catalyst in a sense. It's a bit unorthodox to use this as a major pillar in a work like it is in Minotaur Hotel, but I think the discussions throughout the forum speak for themselves. I don't know how much of this was intentional, but it's interesting nonetheless.
